ANEMIC GIANTS GIVE GOLLADAY $80 MILLION DEAL

- ASSOCIATED PRESS

The New York Giants’ anemic offensive is adding quite possibly the best free agent receiver on the market.

The Giants on Saturday signed former Detroit Lions star Kenny Golladay to a four-year contract worth roughly $80 million in the hopes of giving quarterbac­k Daniel Jones a big-threat receiver.

Golloday spent three days with the Giants as the two sides got to know each other and the team’s medical staff got a chance to examine the 27-year-old, who was limited to five games last season by a hip flexor problem.

Golladay said he was impressed with what coach Joe Judge and offensive coordinato­r Jason Garrett told him about the offense, adding the decision to sign was a nobrainer.

“This team is going to get a competitor, a guy who is going to come and work,” Golladay said. “He is going to try to push other guys and have fun with it. You know, I want to have fun while I’m doing this. That’s what I’m doing it for. (I’m) just a playmaker.”

Tackle Isaiah Wilson, a first-round bust for the Titans, lasted less than two weeks with the Dolphins.

Miami released Wilson after he was late for his physical and team meetings, and failed to show for workouts he had scheduled, a person familiar with the Dolphins’ decision said.

• The Chargers agreed on a one-year deal with guard Oday Aboushi, their third offensive line signing since free agency started.

• Jets safety Marcus Maye signed his franchise tag tender from the team, and the sides have until July 15 to negotiate a longterm deal.

• The Cowboys and safety Keanu Neal agreed on a $5 million, one-year deal that will reunite the former Atlanta player with new Dallas defensive coordinato­r Dan Quinn, two people with knowledge of the deal told The AP.

• The Bears released former All-pro CB Kyle Fuller and signed Desmond Trufant to a one-year contract to replace him.
